Should I buy PUBG

PUBG is the best, worst game I've ever played.

By this I mean the general idea of PUBG is incredible. Battle royal is a classic and tested idea. The games are fast enough that it fits everyone's schedules (unlike MOBAs where you often have to be ready to commit an hour) or MMOs where time is a huge resource on your part. The game mixes competitiveness with social and casual-ness very well. For example, I loved Starcraft. However, massing solo queue games gets old. You have nobody to talk to besides text chatting your opponent, and doing this takes away focus resulting in a loss. But in PUBG, you get to queue with friends, solo, or randoms. However, it isn't so casual that it gets stale (think games without leaderboards). There's still that chicken dinner at the end and leaderboards to see advancement in your ability. The game isn't punishing for a loss. In a game like Rust, you're reset. In a game like Dota, a very high amount of time is spent. Do you really want to requeue after losing an hour long stalled game? In PUBG, you requeue and find yourself instantly back in the action.

With all that said, the game is buggy as hell. You'll often get frustrated by them and with a major developer would release their own competition to PUBG. But I think the game is worth the price regardless.
